Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

"A pill-making competition?"

Han Feng suddenly realized.

It turns out that today is still the Black Corner Region's Alchemy Conference.

He, the city lord, didn't even pay attention.

"Hehe, judging from your appearance, you really are a hands-off manager."

Yao Chen smiled and strode towards the city gate.

"Let's go and see what outstanding alchemists you have at your Black Corner Region's alchemy competition."

Han Feng shook his head with amusement.

What a coincidence!

The two entered the city and leisurely enjoyed the local scenery along the way.

"The Black Corner Region is much more peaceful now than when I came here."

Looking at the genuine smiles on people's faces, Yao Chen sighed.

Han Feng was moved upon hearing this.

Whether it is the past life or this life.

He was once a dying orphan in the Black Corner Region.

It was Yao Chen who happened to be passing by that year and adopted the orphaned Han Feng, taking him to the Starfall Pavilion.

Their fate was born from this.

"The chaos in the Black Corner region stems from people's disregard for the law and their indulgence in power."

Han Feng said.

"As long as a strong person steps forward to quell this bad trend, the chaos can be quickly brought under control."

Yao Chen nodded.

Although this action contains elements of violence, that is how it is in the Dou Qi Continent; power is the root of everything.

However, wise and powerful people choose to restrain their power rather than let it run rampant.

Govern by law and authority, supplemented by kindness and tolerance.

Force is ultimately only a last resort.

"Speaking of which, this is also your hometown. Now you have transformed it into a place where people can live and work in peace and contentment. That's wonderful."

Along the way, Yao Chen witnessed many things and knew that this harmonious scene was not a fabrication, but a genuine joy from the heart.

Han Feng laughed and said, "Actually, I didn't do much. I just restrained those who wanted to cause trouble and then handed over the power to the people here."

Upon hearing this, Yao Chen's lips curled into a smile.

The Han Feng before him was the outstanding disciple he had always dreamed of.

The two arrived at the venue of the alchemy competition, where a group of young alchemists were being assessed.

Yao Chen and Han Feng looked around and found that there wasn't a single empty seat; the place was packed.

So the two of them just stood there watching.

The qualifications of the participants in this year's alchemy competition have improved compared to previous years.

At least half of them are third-grade alchemists, which shows that the basic quality of the alchemy community in the Black Corner Region is improving.

Although it is still far from being comparable to the alchemy competition of the Pill Tower, it is already considered a very good event in the Northwest Continent.

Judging from the participants' attire, it can be seen that the distant Heavenly Serpent Empire and Lion Nether Empire both sent people here.

They were undoubtedly all young alchemists of the fourth rank, with outstanding talent, and represented the country in the competition.

"Why didn't Xiao Yanzi come this year?"

Yao Chen asked.

Han Feng, this hands-off manager, really couldn't answer that question.

"I don't know. Canaan Academy also sent people this time. Logically speaking, Junior Brother should be able to be selected, but perhaps the three-year agreement is approaching and he doesn't want to focus his attention on other things."

Han Feng said.

If Xiao Yan were to participate, he would have a very good chance of winning the championship.

Even if he wins, the reward won't necessarily be of any use to Xiao Yan.

After all, the master of this city is his senior brother.

The renowned Medicine Master, now known as the Medicine Saint, is his teacher.

After watching today's alchemy competition, Han Feng took Yao Chen to live in the bamboo forest pavilion.

Today's conference was very exciting, allowing Yao Chen to witness the progress in the alchemy level of the Black Corner Region.

Perhaps in the future, the level of medicine making here will continue to improve.

If Han Feng's reputation resounds throughout the continent, then the Black Corner Region will usher in a new era of development.

night.

Fenglinwei arrived in front of the bamboo forest building and asked Han Feng if he would be hosting the final round of the top ten alchemy competition tomorrow.

"No need. There's no need to publicize my return. Just proceed as planned."

Han Feng said.

"Yes."

Under the cover of night, Han Feng went to the Maple City dungeon to visit the two elders, Jin and Yin.

Although it was imprisonment, the environment inside the dungeon was actually quite good.

Forced into a corner, the two elders, Jin and Yin, could only bury themselves in cultivation. Over the years, their strength has improved considerably, reaching the level of a five-star Dou Zong.

After using the combined secret technique, their combat power will be further enhanced.

"City Lord!"

"You finally came!"

Upon seeing Han Feng, the two elders, Jin and Yin, shouted excitedly.

"We know we were wrong, and we will never disobey your decision again. Please let us out!"

Han Feng smiled slightly and presented them with two storage rings.

"Inside is a new batch of cultivation resources, enough for you to use for several more years."

As he spoke, he slightly trembled his hands with fighting spirit, and the prison formation here deepened once again.

The two elders, Jin and Yin, were immediately filled with despair.

That's it, we're completely stuck now.

If they had worked hard to cultivate and broke through to the sixth-star Dou Zong level, their combined strength could reach that of a high-level Dou Zong, so they wouldn't have been without a chance to break through the formation.

However, now that Han Feng has reinforced the formation, unless they both break through to the high-level Dou Zong realm, there is definitely no chance of them escaping.

Seeing that the two were losing their fighting spirit, Han Feng comforted them, "Don't worry, when the time is right, I will release you. During this time, cultivate diligently. See, haven't you made great progress?"

The two elders, Jin and Yin, were heartbroken, but Han Feng rekindled their despair.

"Lord of the city, when are you going to let us out?!"

"Soon, very soon."

Han Feng still held a forgiving attitude towards the two old men from the Black Corner Region who had once helped him guard Maple City.

Once things are settled, let them out so they can see the beautiful landscape of the Black Corner Region.

While Han Feng was visiting the two elders, Jin and Yin, Yao Chen wandered alone in the bamboo forest.

He arrived at a cemetery, paused, and fell silent.

[The Tomb of My Beloved Teacher, Yao Chen]

"This kid..."

Yao Chen sighed softly.

Even though I've come back to life, why is this tombstone still standing?

However, he didn't pay much attention to it, but glanced at the cemetery a few more times, feeling a strange sense of frustration.

The next morning.

The master and disciple returned to Canaan College.

Having explored Maple City and the academy, it's time to head to the Gama Empire.

If you have time, you can also stay at the Xiao family's house for a few days.

Han Feng arrived at Xiao Yan's residence and informed his junior brother that they were ready to depart.

Are you getting ready to leave?

Xiao Yu was excited, while Xiao Yan remained calm.

Han Feng looked at Xiao Yu's appearance. The teacher had given her an Ice Skin Jade Bone Pill before, and it seemed that this girl couldn't wait to take it.

The effect was quite good, significantly enhancing Xiao Yu's appearance.

She was already a beauty, but now she's even more beautiful than before.

Especially her rounded thighs, full and elastic, tsk tsk, junior brother lives in the same room with such a beauty and can still remain chaste.

Wasn't this guy a womanizer when he was young?

Han Feng thought to himself.

"Senior brother, why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing, I just remembered some things from the past."

Han Feng smiled.

Xiao Yan shuddered, sensing a deeper meaning in his senior brother's gaze.

"Alright, let's go. We still need to pick up your family members from the outer courtyard."

Han Feng led the two to an open space.

Yao Chen was already waiting there. He adjusted the flying ship and then personally piloted it to the outer courtyard.

"This flying treasure ship is much more convenient than the one your senior uncle uses. I never expected you to become such a skilled weapon refiner."

Yao Chen exclaimed in surprise.

No one had mentioned this to him before.

Really.

"Though the paths may differ, the destination is the same. By sheer coincidence, I received the inheritance of a semi-saint."

Han Feng explained.

"The illusory god tablet in my hand comes from that half-saint."

Yao Chen's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this.

He had previously suspected that Han Feng must have been mentored by some powerful figure, which transformed him from a backstabbing villain into the respectful and devoted teacher he is today.

Could it be that this semi-saintly powerhouse enlightened Feng'er?

Having this thought in mind, Yao Chen did not immediately seek verification, but instead kept this clue to himself.

He was genuinely curious about how Han Feng had undergone such a dramatic change.

Asking directly doesn't feel quite right, so I'll just have to find out for myself.

To be honest, Yao Chen is increasingly reluctant to recall that painful past event.

This way, he could numb himself and treat Han Feng in front of him as a true disciple, while the previous ones were not.

People should always look forward and not dwell too much on the past.
